next up, healthcare. yep. romney really made a death panel reference, referring to the independent payment advisory board which does have the power to force medicare cuts. but it is explicitly prohibited from rationing care or restricting benefits so no, it's not a death panel. romney said he would balance the budget in ten years but he still has not offered up a plan for that. in fact, he says he will increase military spending and restore billions of dollars to medicare and supposedly won't raise taxes meaning no new income. one spending reduction he did offer is cutting funding to pbs. but that's only $450 million a year which pales in comparison to other government spending. more bill press is coming up after the break. stay with us. you're about to watch an ad message created by a current tv viewer for capella university. matter. >> i work with adults with developmental disabilities. growing up i had a single mother of four and people in the community were so helpful when they didn't even have much themse

to pay for government-run healthcare, you'll pay higher taxes and more for your medicine. >> that ad is referring to the fact that in his decision to uphold the affordable care act earlier this year, the supreme court redefined individual mandate as a tax. what it actually does is require everyone to have health insurance since many people already do, it is a bit of a stretch to consider that a tax on all americans. when you look at the president's policies as a whole he has enacted several tax breaks for the middle class. like the adoption and dependent care tax credits and a 2% payroll tax cut. the ad claims mitt romney would then lower taxes on the middle class but look, when you look at this ad, the facts don't add up. according to the tax policy center, romney would have to get rid of the president's tax breaks effectively raising taxes on the middle class all in order to pay for his tax cuts for the wealthy. and speaking of taxes and spending cuts, leaders in the senate right now are working on a plan to avoid the fiscal cliff come january. we're looking at $720 billion worth o
